A lie is a lie I think. I think that if she can live with telling a white lie every time someone asks (and I can't imagine how many times one would get asked "What's up with the dent?") then that's on her and more power to her. If she can't deal with it, then honesty is the best policy.
Of course Georgre Carlin (I think) always said something to the effect of "If honesty is the best policy, doesn't that make dishonesty the second best policy by process of elimination?"
